So those changes are worthy of association with M? Give me a break...

anyone can get a PPK, so that's not a big deal. And if the 235 had a different sports suspension, then I would have to guess that the 230 is a car that handles quite terribly.

The 235 was floaty, squishy, and devoid of feedback. It was so bad that I took the financial hit after 18 months, and got into a 981 CS, which was on another planet in every way imaginable.

But you're right - that's just my personal experience.
